there is a 2012 farm bill that was not passed before the election. basically what's going to happen january 1 is we're going to revert to having milk prices set by an act that was in place in 1949. so very antiquated. what that means is the milk price could double. the average in right now for a gallon of milk is about $3.50. you could see it go to $8 by february. now what can happen is within the next year as we're looking to change things, we can either pass the new bill, or we can extend the bill that we have. if that happens, then the secretary of agriculture can step in. and he can adjust the prices. >> got you. we'll be watching all of that. nice to have you here. >> thank you very much. >> thank you. a programming note -- david gregory will have an exclusive interview with president obama on the fiscal cliff crisis tomorrow on "meet the press." >>> want to check the morning's other top stories from jenna wolfe. good morning. >>> good morning, hi, everyone. over $60 billion of aid to victims of hurricane sandy is hanging in the balance this mor
